Vincent van Gogh & Margot Begemann Relationship, Joint Family Tree & History

van Gogh famously cut his own ear off with a razor and handed it to a prostitute. He suffered from serious mental health issues and spent periods of time in psychiatric hospitals. In 2009, two academics believed that Vincents friend Gauguin sliced his ear off with a saber in dispute.

Vincent's nephew inherited his artwork and founded the van Gogh museum in 1976
